Should you program your software version E4 / E5 lock manually and later decide
to use a personal computer to program the E4 / E5, you will need to completely
reinitialize the lock and reprogram the lock from the manufacturer’s default state using
the personal computer hardware, software, and processes.
Exit setting mode:
Enter * to exit a setting mode, or wait 10 seconds
Low battery warning:
After entering a valid iButton key or keypad user code, the LED in the center of
the iButton reader will flash 5 times. This indicates that the total battery voltage is less
than 4.8 volts and the AA batteries need to be replaced.
Non-software E5 lock:
The non-software version of the E5 lock will flash the LED red 5 times very
rapidly when the batteries are in need of replacement.
Software version E5 lock:
The software E4 / E5 version will flash the LED red 5 times slowly when the
batteries are in need of replacement.
Unlocking / Locking indicators:
Non-software E5 lock:
When in the ‘Storehouse’ mode the non-software version of the E5 will light the
LED in the center of the iButton reader green when unlocked with the keypad or iButton.
It will stay green until the lock relocks, when the LED will flash red twice to indicate the
lock has relocked itself. In general, the LED will also flash once every time a key is
pressed on the keypad.
Software version E4 / E5 lock:
The software E4 / E5 version will light briefly when unlocking. When relocking,
the LED does not light. In general, the LED will also flash once every time a key is
pressed on the keypad.
LED Blink Mode:
For both the non-software version E5 and the software version E4 / E5, the LED
in the center of the iButton reader can be set to flash once every 5 seconds. If the lock is
locked, it will flash red, if unlocked it will flash green. This is a useful feature but can
also reduce battery life somewhat. (This function is programmable using 'function code
#18')
